This is a revised and expanded edition of When the Sky Fell: In Search of Atlantis (which originally appeared in 1995). In the intervening 15 years there has been a lot of interest in both the subjects of Atlantis and climate change. This book addresses both of these topics in a thought-provoking manner.

For those who dismiss either (or both) of these topics as being unscientific, there is nothing here which will change their minds. The evidence which is laid out will be seen as happenstance, coincidence, or simply hand-picked to fit the theory of the authors. Those who support their theory will be seen as inconsequential or deluded (hard to do, in my opinion, when one of them was Albert Einstein). So they will gain nothing from this book, and may safely leave it on the shelf of the bookstore.
